  1. When I bought my Peter Nicholls coin cabinet, they also sold me a pack of paper discs about 23mm diameter on which to record details of each coin. They no longer supply these and I need more. Does anyone know of another source ?
  2. Done to keep vampires at bay........
  3. Thanks Jerry - hopefully my website will help with identification !
  4. My ha'penny varieties site certainly isn't going to go down to that sub-atomic level.
  5. I'm not sure it's in the right place.
  6. Right, your images are now visible - I'll download it. secondly, Colin Cooke has a good set of images from the Dr Nicholson collection which I can plunder.
  7. Elizabeth II still work in progress (as are many others). Trouble with these "modern" varieties, the auction houses don't tend to put photos up as they are not rare, and so I don't have pictorial examples of these different reverse types. Re the above comment, 2nd page of what ? (also, I can't see your images)
  8. Try searching the Spink archive - you will waste 20 minutes of your life on what must be the worst auction archive website in the world. It has been discussed on here before but they do nothing about it.
  9. Thank heavens for my allotment. Fresh air and exercise every day and people to talk to on neighbouring plots 2 metres away. Potatoes are in and the whole allotments have never looked so neat !
  10. The 1 over 1 is standard on F36 (bronzed copper proof) and F37A (copper proof) but not on F37 bronze proof.
  11. That's the key post - many thanks Mike.
  12. having now seen the 3rd page of Iain Dracott's article (the rarity list), it appears that the S prefix was established by Ron Stafford, a collector that I have now lost touch with.
  13. Gary Schindler tells me that Mal Lewendon created a Compact disc reference about 14-15 years ago for halpennies - does anyone have that CD or its contents ?
  14. Here's an example of the first 1 over 1. Also 6+G.
  15. I have printed off the Dracott article but I can't work out what the "S" reference is with regard to the obverse and reverse types, e.g. Obverse 1A has F1* and S1. I presume 1A is Dracott's identifier, 1* is Freeman's but what is S1 ?
  16. Thanks for all the information guys - got a few weeks' worth of work to do now..........................
  17. Thanks to those who tried to get Dracott info to me but I couldn't connect to dropbox.
  18. Very interesting - thanks Mike.
  19. Paddy, could you provide the link again, please.
